Philopteridae

	Philopteridae The Philopteridae are a family of Ischnocera, chewing lice mostly parasitic on birds. The taxonomy and systematics of the group are in need of revision; the Philopteridae are almost certainly paraphyletic. Genera Some notable species are also listed. * '' Acidoproctus'' * '' Acutifrons'' * '' Aegypoecus'' * '' Alcedoecus'' * '' Alcedoffula'' * '' Anaticola'' * '' Anatoecus'' * '' Aquanirmus'' * '' Ardeicola'' * '' Ardeiphagus'' * '' Auricotes'' * '' Austrogoniodes'' * '' Austrophilopterus'' * '' Bedfordiella'' * '' Bizarrifrons'' * '' Bobdalglieshia'' * '' Bothriometopus'' * ''Brueelia'' * '' Bucerocophorus'' * '' Buceroemersonia'' * '' Buceronirmus'' * '' Bucorvellus'' * '' Buerelius'' * ''Campanulotes'' * '' Capraiella'' * '' Caracaricola'' * '' Carduiceps'' * '' Centropodiella'' * '' Chelopistes'' * '' Cirrophthirius'' * '' Colilipeurus'' * '' Colinicola'' * '' Coloceras'' * ''Columbicola'' ''Columbicola extinctus ''Columbicola extinctus'', also known as the passenger p ...

	Ischnocera The Ischnocera is a large superfamily of lice. They are mostly parasitic on birds, but including a large family (the Trichodectidae) parasitic on mammals. The genus '' Trichophilopterus'' is also found on mammals (lemurs), but probably belongs to the "avian Ischnocera" and represents a host switch from birds to mammals. It is a chewing louse, which feeds on the feathers and skin debris of birds. Many of the avian Ischnocera have evolved an elongated body shape. This allows them to conceal themselves between the feather shafts and avoid being dislodged during preening or flight. The taxonomy of the group is in need of revision, as several phylogenetic studies have found the group to be paraphyletic, specifically in regards to the two major families Philopteridae and Trichodectidae. In order to resolve this, in 2020 de Moya ''et al.'' proposed retaining the majority of the species (including Philopteridae) within Ischnocera, and then moving Trichodectidae to its own grouping cal ...
